1300 or Higher but rejected thread

<p>Just curious how many of us there are. If you were rejected with a 1300 or higher, post your score here.</p>

<p>I scored 1300 on the dot and was rejected.</p>

<p>1400/1600
2110/2400</p>

<p>Math: 720, Reading: 680, Writing: 710</p>

<p>My essay was literally probably one of the top 10 UF had received this year from their freshman class. I am stunned right now.</p>

<p>how do you know that your essay was "probably one of the top 10 UF had received this year"?</p>

<p>I don't know that. But it was an amazing essay specifically for UF.</p>

<p>1310/1960</p>

<p>680 Reading, 630 Math, 650 Writing</p>

<p>1370/2030
730 math, 640 cr, 660 wr</p>

<p>4.0 gpa rejected</p>

<p>I personally like applicants with confidence.</p>

<p>Damn Holistic Admissions shafted you all, and it's really a travesty in my opinion.</p>

<p>So you don't think that with all the applications UF get, there would be applicants with >1300 getting rejected? I do know 2 admissions officers personally and I know they give certain students the chance to prove themselves and accept them, but there are definitely not the majority of people that get in. There are couple admits that I do find very questionable because of their ability to handle the academic rigors of college but its not my place to decide.</p>

<p>It seemed like alot of students with 25's on the ACT got in for this incoming class. Just saying we had a huge disparity in those that were admitted.</p>

<p>I think it's possible that most rejections of people with 1300+ SAT scores had sub-4.0 GPAs.</p>

<p>I'm sure it was my 3.8 GPA that killed me last year. My 32 ACT and other academic awards couldn't save me. My school didn't rank.</p>

<p>I got a 32 ACT, but I am sure I would have gotten rejected had I stayed at my old school (where my ranking was low) and had I not gotten into an awesome EC senior year.</p>

<p>"My essay was literally probably one of the top 10 UF had received this year from their freshman class."</p>

<p>Obviously not.</p>

<p>I had a 3.8 GPA; I still thought I had a good shot with my 1300 though. I hate to even say this, but I do know a minority who got in with a similar GPA to mine and 100 points lower on their SAT.</p>

<p>Hispanic here.
1360/1600
2000/2400
720M /640 V / 640 R</p>

<p>7 AP's</p>

<p>REJECTED!</p>

<p>What's sad is that kids got in with 1100 SAT's from my school.</p>

<p>It is pretty obvious from the stats on the acceptance thread that UF only cares about GPA & top 10% status!</p>

<p>May sound bitter but those kids from my school are the arse kissers who beg and grovel for every point.
I guess I never kissed enough arse to get into UF.</p>

<p>Top 10% with an SAT of 1100.
I see an early transfer to a basket weaving major for these mental midgets.</p>

<p>There I'm done!
Bring on the flame! arse kissers!</p>

<p>Then don't say it.</p>

<p>That was to Matt125</p>

<p>I have seen it over and over; UF looks for GPA first and scores secondly. You may disagree with me but if you have a super high GPA you are a proven hard worker who will do well. A high SAT score means you are book smart and may not be willing to work. It only makes sense for them to accept PROVEN hard working students.</p>

<p>First off, there is nothing wrong with getting an 1100 on your SAT.
There is much more to a person then SAT scores. </p>

<p>UF cares more about GPA than anything, and just because you have a high SAT means exactly what Helpful Mom said. </p>

<p>I SAID ITS GREAT TO BE A FLORIDA GATORRRRRRRR :)</p>
